Description
This deliciously flavorful copycat Zoe’s Kitchen cauliflower rice recipe is made with fresh parsley and mint and a squeeze of tangy lemon juice. Serve it with everything from grilled chicken to roasted salmon or black beans for a nutritious and vegetable-packed meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups riced cauliflower
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil (plus more to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped
- 1/4 cup green onion, chopped
- juice of 1/2 large lemon
Instructions
- Drizzle a large pan with olive oil and bring to a medium-high heat. Add the riced cauliflower, salt and pepper and cook until the cauliflower is tender, about five minutes.
- Add fresh parsley, mint and green onion and stir. Cook for an additional minute. Remove from head and toss with fresh lemon juice.
- Drizzle with additional olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm or chilled.
Notes
This recipe goes fast in our house as the cauliflower tends to cook down a bit so I prefer to double it!
While flavorful enough on its own, I like this recipe best as the base of a veggie-packed bowl topped with feta cheese, cucumber, cherry tomatoes and shredded chicken or black beans.
